Organic Tick Repellant

- Ticks can threaten animals and people, but there is a simple organic treatment to help with your stock animals. Oil of turpentine, a natural tree oil, is available at old pharmacies or hardware stores as pure gum turpentine, and it can be injected under the skin of the animal to repel ticks. The turpentine gives off a smell that masks the animals from attracting ticks. The animals should be injected under the loose skin of the neck, between the skin and the flesh. Injections into the flesh won’t kill the animal, but they will get a small abscess in that spot, which will have to be treated. This wonderful old-school system is organic, and while it may sting a little, it is for the greater good of the animal. So, find some turpentine oil and protect your animals today.

Geoff, as a veterinarian I have a couple of thoughts. When giving a subcutaneous injection, when you tent the skin you can find a triangle at the end on the tent if you push in with your finger. Then inject in the triangle parallel to your tent. Second, it is recommended to aspirate or pull back just a bit on the syringe to confirm you haven't hit a blood vessel .It is awkward at first, but you get the hang of it. Perhaps practice before you have the needle in your animal. It is rare to hit a blood vessel, but that would be catastrophic with the oil. Hope this helps.
Thanks Jane that is very helpful
As a vet what are your thoughts on ticks spreading through contact. Do they all get “confused” by smells. Seems like once they are in they’re they would just bite an area without oil.
and if you happen to know, Why not just wash them with this or brush them with a little?
Great info Geoff :-) WOW!!! I can't get over how Latifah has grown!!! I've been offline for 6 years. Lost the old account due to no use (computer blew up) and have re-subbed. You all look great :-) Looking forward to having some catch-up binge sessions on your vids from the last few years! Great to be back online in spite of frustrating very poor reception (thanks Telstra :-/) Was thinking of you during the bushfires last year with what you'd said when doing my PDC. Stay safe everyone and have a fantastic day.
Very interesting! I live in southern europe and here ticks are a serious problem, if you hike you really have to be careful of ticks, cause they're very common and they spread Lyme's disease and other bad illnesses.
I learned a great tip to get rid of ticks, after the bite: take any pointy tool, tweezers, or a screwdriver, anything pointy; delicately turn the tick counterclockwise. Be patient and keep it turning and turning. Don't try to pull it out, in a few minutes the tick will be fed up, and it will leave to find a quieter place to attach. As soon as it detaches, take it and throw it away, or burn it. I tested this and it worked.
Don't use any chemical pruduct or oil on a tick when it's still attached, that could make the tick vomit and increase the chances the tick gives you or your animal desease. If this doesn't work, grab the tick with tweezers as closer to the skin as possible and turn counterclockwise and away from the skin. The turning method has never failed me to this day though.
I have been pouring oil into the dogs ears when I find one way down there. They drop out. So far all dogs have survived.
In Australa. The paralysis tick inject a compound that stops you from feeling the bite or feeding. This same compound can interupt nerve signals that cause the animal (or person) to eventully stop breathing. They class it s a neurotoxin. It's not the feeding that is the issue, it is the compound that they inject to start feeding that is the problem.
A single bite can (if not treated quickly enough) kill small to medium dogs, or cause major issues in larger dogs & humans. We have other ticks here, but this one is never taken lightly, they are a serious issue.
glad you could bring it to us - thanks mate : love your work!
Learned something new about the ol family business. Both the vid and comments. Thanks.
Thanks for posting this important information guys! 👏👏🙏🙏
Great video description, now I don't have to waste my time watching this special video 🙂
Warming the substance will make it much easier to inject through the smaller gage needles.
Thanks for the trick, you give an example for cattle, please let us know how to treat chickens?
Handy info, thanks.
To any Terry Pratchett fans, Granny Aching would approve! Thanks, Geoff.
My idea has been to use mainly these dwarf goets and moscovy ducks for controlling grass in a permiculture system.
Goats are browsers which makes them ideal for this purpose.
Thanks geoff
I have two saanen goats for milk, treating them atm with eucalyptus and tea tree oil as a spray a couple of times throughout the day.
Looking into doing this method. They’re 1 and 8 months. Any idea on dosage?
Good information ❤️.
What is the best season to give turpentine oil to the goat ?
How much would you use for a big (Lab/ Great Pyrenees) dog?
I was also wondering.. can you use this on dogs and people? Amazing thank you for making this video
Look up Dr. Jennifer Daniels how she treat humans using Turpentine against close to everything. She is 60 and looks more like she is half that age if you ask me. (I also use it on dogs and cats)
@@annagudmundsen4419 Hi... thank you! I will look her up
@@annagudmundsen4419 love her message.. thanks for recommending her. Have you done her cleanse?
Now I want to try this on myself...
That's interesting! In the warm season, never salvage vacuum cleaners from the curb, especially with the vacuum bags, they're often infested with fleas and you don't want to bring that home to your animals~
Awesome pine oil?
Hey geoff, I’m a huge fan! Got a question for ya: if you fed them turpentine on a regular basis would it build up in their system doing the same thing as the injection?
I wonder if you found the answer to this question? I'd like to know as well. I've learned about it internally for parasites, so perhaps it would be used for both. But it would likely have to be given by mouth syringe since they won't like the taste!
Would this hurt to do on older larger animals to control ticks and fleas instead of vet meds every three months?
wait this is the same Latifah as in your old videos? time flies!
Would feeding it to them work as well?
Wonder if it works on ticks outside of Australia.
Did you change the needle between animal ?
That's great info thanks I use cedar oil to kill ticks more effective than neem. but prevention would be better 👍 I guess they are similar trees
how often should this be given?
Can I use this on sheep?
*The video camera man should get an award for the camerawork* during injection 😂😂😂
What about humans? Can you use that for them also?
Can you use this organic repellent on dogs and cats?
Is this OK for cats?
Guinea fowl make good tick controllers
Can you use this on dogs? Also it would have been nice I know it's too late but to get the camera right close up so that we can see how you are doing it. I'll definitely share this video thank you!
Have no clue if used with injection, but a few times every year I mix up 2-3 ml turpentine with prox 20-30 ml olive oil and rub it in .
Just separate the hair and let it acces the skin. Same mix is used against mites, just rub it in on the ears.
Have not had problem with fleas, mites or ticks since I started this treatment 6-7 y ago. Works on both dogs and cats. 1-2 mg turpentine in a capsule will also deworm your animal as a bonus.
Look up videos of sub-Q injections
@@ninjasinparidise I think I might have done it a long time ago to a cat that needed water put under the skin everyday it was so long ago I don't remember what was wrong with him but it was sort of the area between the shoulder blades where there's a lot of fur.
@@annagudmundsen4419 thank you so much that's worth a try I really appreciate it!
@@curiosidadesextrano I usually choose shoulders (top or sides of the animal) or the side of the neck. As long as you can pull the skin a little bit it shouldn't matter
This works on humans too, take medical grade internally.
Mosquitoes are biting me and I am wondering ........................
Does it work on humans?
Can you use it on people ?
Nigerian dwarfs and turpentine* Owen Benjamin would have a field day with this. 😆
Heyyy fancy seeing you here, I think you are polar bear on beartaria!
We use pat colebys minerals, free choice for all animals, our dogs rarely have fleas or never a tick in South East qld. I believe its really working and non invasive. If there a hot very wet year and we see an increase in either, I dust every animal with the yellow sulphur What are your thoughts? Have I just been lucky? Thanks
Countrymouse Farmhouse, which of Pat Colebys minerals do you use? Just the prilled sulphur or a mixture?
@@mrstratau6513 I use all. Free choice for older animals , and mixed together for young ones and sprinkled on food. Guinea pigs, poultry, ducks, sheep, horses, goats every animal we keep get some. All have very low parasites and are really healthy.
@@countrymousesfarmhouse497 Thanks your your reply.
Does this work for all ticks? And can I inject myself before tick season?
use 1 drop of pure lavender oil. Spread it over 6 spots on the skin where the blood vessels run close to the skin surface. pay attention to really pure oil. otherwise you will be nauseous. Daily from late Feb to early November. Do this daily if you are very sensitive and quickly attacked by ticks or if you do a lot of forest work. Do you visit forests less often or are you less susceptible to ticks than 2 or 3 times a week. This works well for most people. preventive but you never get a 100% guarantee. Good luck herma
Does it work for chicken to protect them against "red lices" ? (not sure of the translation from french "poux rouges")
Pure lavendel Oil. Give some drops outside on there naked skin. Where there move a blood vessel inside. 1 drop or 1/2 drop is enough. Human 1 drop split in 6 parts and put on Your body on the same way. Only Real pure lavendel oil. Begin in feb. Or marz. And Yes by human every day when you work in a forest. By normal work 3 x pro week. Excuses me My English is writing not very good. This is for ticks.
For the poux rouge. Diatomeeënaarde ( we call That in the Netherlands )
la terre de diatomées, and in feuilles, tiges et lambeaux de tabac. Blanchissez l'intérieur du grenier avec du badigeon (et conservez-le). ...
Accrochez des perchoirs flottants ou créez un tampon pour que les acariens rouges ne puissent pas ramper jusqu'aux perchoirs. ( Google translation. Les acariens se cachent dans les crevasses pendant la journée. In the evening the Bone to visit your chicken. Lavameel farine de lave dans leur grenier. In the water you put ail ( knoflook). To know How Many poux routes there are .tric.Comment diagnostiquez-vous les acariens rouges des oiseaux?
En plaçant un piège à acariens. Vous prenez un tube électrique rond en plastique (environ 10 cm de long). Dans ce tube, vous mettez un morceau de papier ondulé (comme l'emballage intérieur d'un rouleau de biscotte). Vous enroulez le papier jusqu'à ce qu'il rentre dans le tube. Vous accrochez ou placez ce tube sous les perchoirs.
Le matin, lorsque les acariens se détachent des poulets, ils cherchent un abri pendant la journée. Ils le trouvent dans les vagues du papier dans le tube. Lorsque vous sortez le carton du tube dans l'après-midi et que vous le dépliez, voyez. Every 7 days there are adults poux rouge. And every second or 3the day you get new Born poux rouge. Hope this information helps you. Herma sorry I can not read or write france but I hope translation was Good.
@@LPKlok translation was not too bad, I understood the main part of your answer (I knew the trick to trap the bugs and about the "terre de diatomée" but I didn't know for the garlic, lavander oil and "lavameel" Thx :)
Would this work in repelling mosquitoes??
Mosquitoes use infrared to find you, so it wouldn't hide you, but maybe a topical solution would repel them with scent or taste.
Pure gum turpentine
Does it work with people?
Maybe spraying on clothes but I'd be very reluctant to inject that even subcutaneous into humans without a lot more expert advice....but I think we are all wondering since ticks are a big danger to humans too.
@@turnitupmike I've known that turpentine is really good at killing lice and fleas if applied very carefully. I think some lice products use turpentine as one of the ingredients, and I think a lot depends on the refining process. And I think Pinesol (the cleaning product) is just diluted turpentine with other chemicals not fit for anything else but cleaning while diluted in wataer. :)
I heard ducks are effective at eating all the ticks.
Chickens are the best tick repellent.
We will all have to adapt to the mini coming ice age due to reduced sun activity.
Be nice to actually see it done closer 😒
